This addresses the issue of rigid formalization in scientific data sharing for researchers, but it appears incremental as it builds on existing nanopublication concepts.
The paper tackles the problem of representing scientific claims in nanopublications by proposing an approach that uses underspecified English sentences, aiming to extend their application range without requiring complete formal representations.
The application range of nanopublications --- small entities of scientific results in RDF representation --- could be greatly extended if complete formal representations are not mandatory. To that aim, we present an approach to represent and interlink scientific claims in an underspecified way, based on independent English sentences.
